Does current gen games focusing too much on having Orchestral mix in their soundtracks rather than being different genre for once? I noticed when certain old gen game series started emphasizing to Orchestral style music during the PS2 Era and no longer using the same kind of music we had in the 90s & 2000s?

- I was really pissed at MGM for cancelling Stargate:Atlantis in favor of making their BSG. I watched a few minutes from Universe, felt nothing and decided to return to it later, which to this day did not happen. It's unfortunate that we got almost nothing on the video game front of the franchise, FPS, party based RPG, strategy all would have been well suited for the Stargate setting. - While I would like to see a Fallout game from Inexile, I don't want a Woody - Buzz Lightyear style "I don't wanna play with you anymore" meme to happen to Wasteland, they would no doubt feel pressured to just make the big brand/more profitable franchise. Plus they evidently want to do different stuff other than post nuclear desert adventures, so while ideally they should make everything, I'm not sure if it would be possible without severe compromises. - The US president, defense and foreign ministers wanted to micromanage pretty much every move of the armed forces in Vietnam from Washington. On top of that, the foreign minister later admitted that they handed over the list of the targets of upcoming bombing raids to the North-Vietnamese to reduce civilian losses...

38:37 in our country, there is 1 single pizza type that has pineapple on it, and it's actually good, so I never understood the hate, and no, the whole pizza doesn't become sweet, it has a similar effect to when people put sweet sauce or honey or some other stuff on meat, it's not the main taste, it's just give an extra sweetish flavor sure, it may not be for everyone, but it's definitely not bad

Pineapple on pizza is more acceptable than olives and anchovies
@DWTerminator
@DWTerminator 4 ай бұрын
Olives are more than acceptable. They're almost always an excellent addition to any proper pizza. There is no mortal punishment sufficient for the atrocity that is putting pineapple on a pizza. Anchovies, however, are a punishment in and of themselves. Nobody in their right mind ever puts them on pizza.

@@DWTerminatorActually, as much as I dislike anchovies myself, they are pretty commonly put on pizzas here in Italy, and especially in my region (usually together with peppers and black olives). I don't know if anchovies are prepared differently around here (compared to the US), however.

Italy generally has access to fresh anchovies. Ours are all canned, so they're pretty overwhelmingly salty.

I don't think it's that bad. I like combinations of sweet and savoury. Italians can complain that it's sacrilege, but I can't take them seriously anymore since I've seen they eat pizza with fries and German sausages on top of it.

42:08 that gives me an idea, what's your opinion on FPS games where every time you hit an enemy it shows the exact damage in numbers I've noticed that trend creepy into more and more FPS games, and personally it annoys me, but I wonder what you think
@DWTerminator
@DWTerminator 4 ай бұрын
Funnily enough I'll be talking about that topic in an MTO later this week, though it's about the numbers themselves and not the presentation of them in FPSs. I'm pretty indifferent toward it in a "standard" FPS though, especially if it's something you can enable or disable. I do enable it when playing looter shooters and such though since having the damage numbers appear is more useful in those.

Thanks for asking a couple of my questions! BTW, my last name is pronounced like 'Hinder' (as in 'cinder') and 'Lighter'. But I don't mind being referred to as "Brendan H" if it makes things more easier and smooth for you. Yeah, I'm with you that the delisting of games is a whole complicated affair, whether it is musical licensing issues, unable to maintain servers for online components, etc. That being said, it is a shame to think about games being lost to time because of this or other similar problems (like Monolith's No One Lives Forever series, where no one knows who owns the IP rights to them nor do they care about into looking into it as it would likely be costly and time-consuming to bother with). Still, there was no real good reason for Epic to basically try to erase the Unreal franchise off from online storefronts, especially with fan-made multiplayer servers and single player campaigns. At this point, they should hand the series off to someone else if they don't care about it anymore. The Korean War is indeed a war that never had a clear victor, and I find the history surrounding it interesting. The only noteworthy Korean War media that I can think of at the top of my head is Inchon, that really crappy movie from the early 1980's that everyone hated. That said, I wouldn't trust the modern game industry to make an actual good FPS game set in that war. Lastly, and not really related to my questions: I look forward to your reviews on the Painkiller games. Heaven's Got A Hitman was really good for what it is, despite being slightly rough around the edges. Battle Out of Hell I didn't enjoy it as much, but thought it was an alright expansion pack. Overdose was okay; not horrible but not anything to write home about either. The rest of the games afterwards aside from the remake? Hoo boy, they are bad. Horrendously awful. Like blatantly 0.5/5 material. They are the very definition of shovelware.

Comment got buried and I got busy, so sorry about the late response here. I actually just abbreviate all surnames for a bit of extra privacy regardless of whether I can pronounce them or not. Probably not especially effective, but that's why I do it. The Painkiller series has definitely been... interesting... to take a look at. Also quite tiring as that's a *lot* of very simplistic FPS gameplay that wears on the player rather heavily.

Duke Nukem is probably dead cause its not really socially acceptable anymore, hence Gearbox not bothering
@DWTerminator
@DWTerminator 4 ай бұрын
More like the following: 1. Gearbox Software has become "the Borderlands company" and have gone all-in on that. They don't seem to care about any of the other franchises they directly own because that one made it big. Their only other original IP, Brothers in Arms, died with Hell's Highway, and even Homeworld 3 has been outsourced to another developer and it's really just being handled by Gearbox Publishing. 2. Related to the point above, Gearbox Publishing split off from the development part of the company (Gearbox Software) a while back and doesn't consider the main company's games part of its repertoire. 3. [insert greasy Randy joke here] "Socially acceptable" is an idiotic notion. Postal's become a franchise even beyond the main 4 games and it's as socially unacceptable as it gets. Even discounting that, think about how well Hogwarts Legacy sold while the "socially acceptable crowd" shrieked endlessly about how it was [insert thing here]-phobic and so on. A well-made Duke Nukem game will sell well. Gearbox just doesn't want to make it and doesn't care enough about the franchise to outsource it to someone who wants to.
